Those in the motorcycle press who've ridden it say it's wonderful and it's probably the nicest step-through Honda has ever built.

Your thoughts?
I visited my local Honda dealer last week and he said they would get 5 Cubs in May. Only 1 was spoken for.

I think the initial demand is baby boomers reliving their youth.
